I'm not a USB wiz. I don't see anything wrong with ACID. Just like Window's and Mac's every time you move or add a USB device it adds a new port. Just Google "windows 7 release unused com ports." Most software allows you change the what ports the USB device is on. You can under ACID. Just change the all the files need to make the change. Remember that ACID is a command line only OS. So there is no GUI and mouse to click away at. I don't like to edit files or move the URI's around. Now to think about it. I have my node up for two years with the same 2 URI's. I never needed to change or move USB ports for the URI or edit the files. I guess they made ACID to be a install and forgot about it after you configure it.<br>
